Another Satisfied Customer

About 11 o’clock Tuesday morning a regular customer, Steve Brown, came in with a very urgent job. He was catching a plane that afternoon and needed to take with him 10 copies of a 130 page manual as well as 10 copies of other smaller manuals.

We said we would do our best to get the job done in time. Printers collated the various manuals, then we ring bound them. They looked great.

We had finished printing all the manuals when Steve came back at 3pm. He was delighted with the work and said “I am so pleased you’ve managed to print these at such short notice. Thank you”

Bird Feeders

Jen, one of our Printer's thought it would be a nice idea to hang bird feeders on the cherry tree outside the kitchen window. We all agreed, so Geoff, one of our volunteers bought 3 wire feeders, filled them with wild bird food and hung them on the branches.

On the very first day birds came to feed and since then we have spotted great tits, blue tits, robins and a dunnock. Today is a beautiful day, the blossom is out on the tree and lots of  birds are flying to and from the feeders- Spring has sprung at Burwell Print!

Well done to all members of the blue team who were the winning team for November. Tokens are awarded for when a Printer does something beyond what is expected or something out of the ordinary.

Children in Need

On Friday some of us came to work in our pyjamas to raise money for Children in Need.We looked like our alarm clocks had not gone off and we had rolled straight out of bed and into work!

We raised £47.87.

Stuffing for Christmas

At the end of last week we had "all hands to the pumps" to complete an order with a tight deadline for a Cambridge based charity. We creased, folded and rolled 1,550 greetings cards then put the individual cards with envelopes into in plastic display wallets.
